Cloud Pub/Sub

Deliver event data wherever you need it

Cloud Pub/Sub is a simple, reliable, scalable foundation
for stream analytics and event-driven computing systems.
As part of Google Cloud’s
stream analytics solution, the service
ingests event streams and delivers them to
Cloud Dataflow for
processing and BigQuery for analysis as a data warehousing solution.
Relying on the Cloud Pub/Sub service for delivery of event data
frees you to focus on transforming your business and data systems
with applications such as:

check
Real-time personalization in gaming

check
Fast reporting, targeting and optimization in
advertising and media

Build multi-cloud and hybrid applications on open architecture

Syndicate data across projects and applications running on
other clouds, or between cloud and on-premises apps. Cloud Pub/Sub
easily fits in your existing environment via efficient
client libraries for multiple languages, open REST/HTTP and
gRPC service APIs, and an open source Apache Kafka connector.

Scale responsively and automatically

Scale to hundreds of millions of messages per second and pay
only for the resources you use. There are no partitions or
local instances to manage, reducing operational overhead. Data
is automatically and intelligently distributed across data
centers over our unique, high-speed private network.

Bring reliability and security tools to real-time apps

Use Cloud Pub/Sub to simplify scalable, distributed
systems. All published data is synchronously replicated
across availability zones to ensure that messages are
available to consumers for processing as soon as they
are ready. Fine-grained access controls allow for
sophisticated cross-team and organizational data sharing.
And end-to-end encryption adds security to your pipelines.

“Cloud Pub/Sub makes it simple for us to decouple
our background data and event processing from the
code that handles user-facing requests. This lets
us analyze data in real-time with lower code complexity
and without impacting the performance of our site.”

- Colin Fuller, Khan Academy

“We are very excited about the productivity benefits offered
by Cloud Dataflow and Cloud Pub/Sub. It took half a day to
rewrite something that had previously taken over six months to
build using Apache Spark.”

- Paul Clarke, Director of Technology, Ocado

“As one of the earliest Google partners to develop a set of
reusable tools, reference architectures and methods for
accelerating IoT products to market, we’ve been impressed with
Cloud Pub/Sub, a durable, low-latency and scalable service for
handling many-to-many asynchronous messaging.”
